Vitsebsk activist of the For Freedom movement Khrystafor Zhaliapau has been detained by road police on his way to a penal colony in Shklou where former presidential candidate Mikalai Statkevich is currently serving his term.
Apart from For Freedom activists the police detained journalist Zmitser Kazakevich, Conservative Christian Party “Belarusian Popular Front” member Yan Dziarzhautsau and Statkevich’s election agent Aliaksei Haurutsikau.
